Jack Mitchell, 19, from Harlow in Essex has been remanded in custody after he was charged on Sunday (August 5).

A date for his court appearance is yet to be confirmed.

Bedfordshire Police had launched an appeal for the teenager after his vehicle collided with an officer in Sandy on April 24 this year.

He was also charged with an additional two offences of causing grievous bodily harm with intent to resist/prevent arrest and dangerous driving in relation to a separate incident in Essex on April 26.

A Bedfordshire Police spokesperson said: “A man from Essex has been charged with two counts of grievous bodily harm with intent, after a vehicle collided with a police officer and left her with a broken leg.

“Jack Mitchell, 19, of Kingsmoor Road, Harlow, was charged on Sunday with causing grievous bodily harm with intent to resist/prevent arrest and dangerous driving, in relation to the incident in Sandy on April 24.”
